The 25 Best Club Candids Photos of May

Beats were thumping and rumps were bumping for five hours straight inside of the Yucca Tap Room in Tempe as the granddaddy of local hip-hop nights, The Blunt Club, celebrated its 12th birthday on Thursday, May 22. Turntablist extraordinaire and DMC champ Chris Karns laid down some sick wikki-wikki on the ones and twos, as did the members of Broadway Slim (the DJ duo of Riot Earp and Blunt Club resident Pickster One). Local rap ensemble Party Time Excellent (which consists of DJ Organic and hip-hop cats Mouse Powell and Very G) also made its debut performance.
